Smilin' Jack [Popped Wheat Giveaway]

A single 1947 giveaway comic, Smilin' Jack [Popped Wheat Giveaway] was a promotional tie-in for the Popped Wheat cereal brand, published by Sig Feuchtwanger. The issue featured the popular newspaper comic strip character Smilin' Jack, with art and writing by both Boody Rogers and Zack Mosley. A compact piece of mid-century advertising ephemera, it stands as a minor but charming artifact of how comic strips were repurposed to sell consumer goods.
